The Premium Wii U, meanwhile, ships with a 32GB hard drive, leaving users with 25GB of memory after updates.

However, even with the Premium Wii U's additional space, a statement on the game's website reads: "An external hard drive is required to download this software. Visit support.nintendo.com for information about storage options."

Originally titled LEGO City Stories, LEGO City Undercover was announced at E3 2011. The game sees players hunt down criminals in LEGO City, an open-world environment loosely based on San Francisco.

The Wii U GamePad will act as a communicator to talk to other characters, a scanner to search for clues and a sat nav for finding your way around the city.
